NATIONAL ---LOAN FUND LIFE AS tl7ln't'N'CE SOCIETY. • ( From • - tlie Bristol Miiror.) A meeting was held - et the 'offices of the above Society, in this city, on Thursday the 14th instant, to hear an exposition of its principles, and to obtain the support and co-operation of the leading gentle men of Bristol in approval, in carrying those piinc:ples nits) effei tive epsretitee Mr. KINGTON been unanimously requested to take the Chair, said he complied with the requisition with same degree of diffidence. as there were gentlexen present who knew much ire re of the suliiset, and were more capable of entering into it than I.imscif, bet he seas in a great degree relieved by the preeeeee of Mr. Hampton, a gentleman con nected with the Society, who would state the views and ob ject; for which it :vas formed. Mr. J. W. lI.AmProN said I shall not trespass much upon your time in laying hefere you the objects of this Society ; its princ . p:es are already- known to almost every gentleman here pre-ein. I have had the honour and gratification of a personal interview, and the privilege of a persoeal explanation with each; the prospectuses of the Society have been also carefully examined, and therefore my entering iota minute details, as I was called upoa to do at a public meeting, held at Reading, where a large portion of my auditors comprised a number of retail tradesmen aid mechanics, would, among the mercantile gentlemen of eminence and commercial ability now assembled, and to whom the natu e and principles of life assurance must be perfectly familiar, be supei fluous. I shall, therefore, limit myself to a few important facts as connected with life assurance in general, and the National Loan Fund inperticular. especially as many gentlemen have done me the favour to peruse the re port of the public meeting held at Reading, and where the particular features and advantages held out to the middle and labouring classes were detailed at length. Mr. Hampton here said that he must first observe that it was not the wish of this Society to place itself in competition with other institu tions, and the true way to regard their holding public meetings, &c., was an increased business to every office, by bringing the nature and principles of life assurance more prominently for- . ward. The most important features with regard to Life As surance, and the improvement introduced into our plan and which demand your particular attention, are the following : In the first place the fact is universally admitted that the princi ples of Assurance are those best calculated to provide for future contingencies, being based upon the most equitable mathematical calculation upon the average expectation of human life. Secondly —Notwithstanding this admission, and the certainty of this advantage, the limited number of persons insured in proportion to the population, viz , about 80,000 upon a popu lation of 14 millions for England and Wales. Thirdly—The enormous awns accumulated by various offices upon a most limited business. Fourthly—The unbounded accumulation and wealth to he acquieed by admitting the middle classes of society, the most numerous and wealthy ie the aggregate in the country, into the advantages of Life Assurance. Fifthly-- That the middle and lower classes are more disposed to be provident and saving than ie generally believed, as proved by their support of S icings Banks and Benefit Societies, although th," former is restricted, and the latter extremely defective, the accumulation in one, by small deposits, being in a few years 20 millions and a half, and the other having, notwithstanding their deficiencies, 1,000,000 of deposits, and that, therefore, the ad mission of theee classes within the pale of Life Assurance is of the most paramount importance. That, lastly, the National Loan Fund having removed the great obstacle to the extension of Life Assurance, viz., the risks of loss and forfeitures to those possessed of no certain income, by introducing two principles, viz., returning two-thirds of a man's payments to his relations at his death, in the event cf forfeiture with any bonuses or profits there may have been assigned upon his policy during the continuance of his payments, and permitting him to bor row to the same amount under the pressure of misfortune, holds out the certainty of its becoming in the true sense of the word national, and, I may say, universal. That if Savings Banks and Benefit Societies, checked as they are by restrictions, have been able to do so much, the National Loan Fund admitting within the reach of it; advantages the two numerous classes above mentioned—and if the success of a Society, viewing it conernercially, depends upon the amount of business done, its accurnitlations must, in the course of a few years, be greater than that of the richest society in the world, and that, there fore, the connection of an individnal with it in any way must become highly advantageous. I will now call your attention to a Feint connected with Life Assurance, which has, I believe, neeer been publicly and prominently put forward, and this is t. , e increased and increasing value of human life ; although the tables upon which most offices have been accumulating large cap tats, for more than thirty years remain the same, and which theeefore is another guarantee of the stability and continued prosperity of these institutions. Wh en insurances on lives first began to be effected, in imita tion on policies, the premiums used to be inordinately high, eight and ten per cent. being demanded for risks which might - bore been adequately covered by four or five ; and when the first enplication was made in Parliament for a charter of incor eporation by the Equitable Society, the law officers of the Crown ret;seed to grant it, considering the plan dangerous and visionary, altiseugh in the present day the tables are consi dered as very Since that period, however, the seience has made rapid pr o .zress, extensive tables have been calculated upon the average of the true document of human life, of which the Carlisle are considered the most liberal, ar.d the most equitable, and which are soon used by the majority of offices with success, having received the support and appro bation of such high names as Finiaison. Naylor, Milne, Gi iffeth, Davies, Gorrpertz, Babbage, and mauy other eminent mathernatieikins and actuaries, who gave evidence in their Commons, appoint,l to examine into \lie workina.ot i t.l.lChory' Societies, is 18'25 and 1827. Iu France, among the whole population, the mortality annually during the 17th century was one in 25. in 1781, one in 29, and during the five years prered:ng 1835, one in 39. It is supposed by M. Duvillard that vi ccinetion has increased the mean duration cf life 34-, though others hive asserted that this increased value is more applicahle to infant life, and is not noticeable at a more mature age. ers. Finlaison, however, in 1e , 25, diseovered a very great prolongetion of life ; his calculations were made over 25,000 life annuitants, and showed the difference to be, as compared with the previous' century as nearly as four to three, and also a great ditleeence between the two sexes, the advantage being in favour of females. As we progress in eirirzation, the value of human hie must necessarily increase ; one great cause of the deterioration of Lealth has gradually been removed, I mean the habit of hard drinking, which prevailed so extensively among all classes 20 and 30 years ago. This habit astong the higher and middle classes of society has dis appeared alto ether, and although still very prevalent among the lower, must gradually abate by Ow free of example, the extension ef education, and the efforts which are un ceasingly being ,trade by the teachers of religion and mo rality, its ieducine ei snore rational line of conduct. For. thermore, the helpmeets - tent in medical science, the bet ter arrangement of sheds and manufactories, as regards ventilation. and the substiOnion of inechinesv for manual labour, particularly in trad, s where human Li'e is greatly ri-red, must naturally havo this tendency. I will finally call your most psrtictilar attention to cur plan of deferred ennui. ties, by which the poor man, by the weekly deposit of the smallest sum, sill be put in possession of advantages which the • defective principle of benefit societies have not only never been able to give him, setting aside the constant waste and excesses their monthly and yearly meetings lead to, but which, from the rn mat eeteesive inquiries have made him a serious loser, awl I cannot in this place do better than read you the com parison draws lin us bctaeen our principles and those of benefit eseietiee. Mr. ilionoton proceeded to read from the pro spectus of the deterred annuities a comparison with benefit societies, by which a poor man, by the smallest deposit, would secure to hirneelf nearly double the annuity, with the option of a sum of money or a pWi,•y, and which would not Le granted by a benefit society. If any gentleman will look over these tables, and compare them with those of benefit societies, taking into account that his mean duration of sickness is only 91 days annually, lie will fled, at any age he may specify, that he sill have nearly double the annuity with two options ; the con tini,:er.9y for s•ckness is at the same time amply provided fur, and the prin,-ip'e of returni•ig two. thirds of payments at deed!, the event of forfeiture, secures him from the possihility of the smallest less with the certainty of the fullest protection and profit a; . .plicablo. to each contingency. I will not &cell at leoesfli upon the great moral advantages which make thernselvae apparent in a review of our plan. One of the greatest ineen,iees to moral conduct is peace of mind. When a man finds that his industry is made productive, the fullest impulse is given to that industry ; that particular state of mind reacts upon his constuct in general ; he devotes him self more to the comforts of home, forbears the gin-palace, to which he is as frequently driven by the despair of' poverty as incliu:•tiun, is able to give a better education to his children, each new comer no longer regarded as another competitor for a share of the scanty meal, and thus the moral principle, acting upon each link of the great chain of human existence, will gradually produce peace, harmony, industry, and good-will between man and man, from the highest to the lowest; be tween father and son, between husband and wife, between one human being and another—and as it is true that to be virtuous is to be happy, so by enabling a man to secure his peace of mind—to give the fullest impulse to his iudustry to rise in the scale of society and to become happy—to be happy is, on the other hand, to be virtuous. In conclusion, Gentlemen, the object of this Society in this town is, by forming a local Board, supported by the most influential names in Bristol, to create feeling of confidence in its moral objects ; and, through the influence of their names, extend it to every class in the community. Mr. Ilesieeoe's address was listened to with great attention. fa the course of some conversation relative to the efficiency of rates or tables ref die Society, between Mr. T. Sanders, Mr. C. B. Fripp, Mr. George Jones, Mr. W. Morgan, and Mr. H. A. Palmer, Mr. C. 0. Fripp stated, among other facts, that he was disposed to have: a favorable opinion of the tables of the Society, in consequence of their being somewhat higher than office in which he was insured, and in which he bad the lihshest c mfid .11r. G. W. Hai.l, said be was glad to find that such searching and apposite questions had been put upon the subjece by individuals so competent to propose them as time gentlemen present, who had devoted their attention in va rious ways el subjects of this kind. Since he had been able to reflect he had been a decided friend to the prin ciple of Assurance,' which he coesidered a bound on duty on a large proportion of society, and a means of contri buting most essentially to their peace, happiness, anal corn tort. The opportunity of • being able to accomplish this work of providence was, in his opinion, a distinguishing, mark between civilized and savage life. How few, corn- Railtively speaking had availed themselves of the oppor - EIN si'SPlAlity 1 eighty thousand in a pepulation of fourteen millions! there must be semething, deficient in a principle which, valuable, attracted so few. The power of choice ‘A . -t e various modes of benefit now introduced brought ct forward in a very different shape, and it was ?it*: • <7f-f;•217---i well known that the principle of providence once intro duced had a tendency to progress, and to prevent those devas tating and expensive evils which overrun society. lip,:n the tables he would not venture to give an opinion, their accuracy was vouched for by men of station, character, and science, and by their degree of correspondence with other Societies, not possessing the facilities of convertibility. so much wanted, and hr re brought forward. The principles involved, all could judge of, and he was disposed individually to give his warmest support to an establish rent calculrted to promote the well being of hundreds of thousands. Mr. W. CLAXTON said that he regretted that his friend Mr. C. E. Bernard was not present, as it was well known to every one that he was a gentleman of enquiring mind, and having informed himself of the principles of the Society in London, where he now was, he was so satisfied that he had written to beg his name might be put upon the list of Local Directors. . . Mr. CLAxTot.i then stated that a Local Board, consisting of the following most respectable names, Mr. Thomas King ton, Mr. F. Aiken, Mr. C. E. Bernard, Mr. Hinton Castle, Mr. G. W. Hall, had been formed, with power to add to their number, and expressed himself sincerely obliged to the gentlemen present fur their kind attendance. A vote of thanks was unanimously pas:ed to Mr. Kington, for his able conduct in the Chair, who, in acknowledging the compliment, said that the thanks of the meeting were more `especially due to Mr. Hampton, for the clear, lucid, and sa tisfactory statement he had laid before this meeting, which having been cordially acceded to, the meeting separated.

We arc authorised to state, that the carriages of persons going' to houses and places to view the procession on her Majesty's Coronation will be allowed to pass the barriers, for the purpose of setting down the company, until nine o'clock in the morning: All carriages will be required to re turn immediately after setting do - ,vn the company, and none will be permitted to stand at any point upon the line. No car riage or waggon rill be allowed to draw up or stand on the outside of any bttlrier. We are also authorised to st , :te, that the tickets issued by the Earl Marshal for the rehearsal at the Abbey will each ad mit one person only. CORONATION . THE ADDRESS OF THE TRADES' UNIONS OF MANCHESTER AND SALFORD TO THE WORKING MEN of GREAT BRITAIN and IRELAND. You are caUed upon by the authorities of these towns to join in the Coromtlon precession of our Most Gracious Sovereign Victoria on the 48th of June instant. We assure the municipal authorities that we are not wanting in lsWe and loyaliy to the Queen, but that dear bought ex perience has taught us the folly of such idle pomp and useless parade, and we can no longer, as rational and intelligent beings, become the dupes of our oppressors, the passive instruments for creating, by shows • and gewgaws, a false nation of our prosperity; for the truth is, the working classes have not wherewithal to spend in glittering parapher nalia, neither have they any confidence in the government of the country being willing to better their condition, and remove the embar rassments under which our merchants and manufacturers are now la bouring. We deeply deplore the present state of things, and we regret that our Government should have - agreed to spend so much money upon a Coronation, whilst so many of our fellow-labourers are out of employ ment, and very many of them pining in hunger, and literally starving to death, both in England and Ireland—the Hand-loom Weavers to wit. We, the Trades' Unions, have had no encouragement fram our na tional and local rulers to join in any of their schemes, since we find the wealthy, in and out of Parliament, conspiring against the labouring poor to deprive them of the rights of industry, and withholding from them the political rights and liberties of freeborn British subjects ; at the same time they call upon us to testify our allegiance to that very system of Government wnich offers us no protection—which manifests no sympathy for the destitute poor of our country, but upon all occa. sions takes advantage of the power they possess to treat us as slaves, stigmatize us as cornbinators, and persecute us as criminals. We have not forgotten our persecuted brethren of Dorchester, who were torn from their homes, from the bosoms of their families, and exiled to a foreign land. We c ninot reconcile to our favour the transporters of our five Glasgow brethren, who are now suffering painful imprisonment at the instigation of Government. We will not countenance any mi nistry, who, by their acts, have condemned and persecuted our order — who have hardened the heart of our Queen, and closed the gates of mercy against the prayers of hundreds of thousands of labourers in fa vour of our Glasgow brethren ; they have sworn enmity against our order, and by such conduct are undermining the throne, alienating the affections of she people, and bringing the throne and laws into contsmpt. The forthcoming Coronation will convince the Government that the ueople are becoming, tired of the system which encourages luxurious idleness, excessive taxation, constant persecution of the poor, and the useess squanderings of the- haul earnings of the labouring millions; it wilt not only be shorn of its splendour, but its very existence will denote the decay of this once mighty nation. While our authorities condemn public bodies and political associa tions, on this occasion they forget that Trades' Unions are public bodies ; necessary evils brought into existence by the baseness of our political system, and the consequent tyranny of capitalists, whom the laws allow to ride rough-shod over prostrate labour, and drive the labourers to asso ciate for common protection, since the law afil.rds them none. We therefore hope that Trade Societies will on no account allow themselves to be duped by their employers with gifts of money, drink, arid feasts, in order to induce them to join the procession ; such conduct will betray their weakness, and afford the venal press an opportunity to boast of prosperity, which every thinking man knows full well does not exist. Let the authorities send their delegate in vain ; join neither pro cession nor the idle throng that gapes on it; but betake yourselves to some more rational mode of testifying your loyalty to the Queen, and your hatred of those base minded wretches who fatten upon your labour, and poison her royal ear against the prayers of her suffering subjects. By order of the Trades' Council, composed of twenty-three Trades. PLYMOUTH-SATURDAY. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. spite of a severe cold, on Wednesday the 20th, being the an niversary of the Accession of her Majesty, I attended divine service at the only Church open in these towns and vicinity, comprising a po pulation of nearly 100,000 souls. At the said Church, however, all notice whatever of the form of prayer was studiously omitted. Verily it is high time for the emoluments of the Clergy to be regu lated according to the duties performed, since their present ones are con ditional, on that excellent Rubric— " The Curate that ministereth in every parish SHALL' say daily the morning and evening prayer in the parish Church where he ministereth." Such was formerly the practice in the Church alluded to. Its coati nuance, however, from Tuesday, 2Sth October, 1817, t t Saturday even ing, May 7, 1825, inclusively, was at the repeated instance of Mr. Ro bert Webb Stone Baron, a gentleman of this town, who deposed to divers abusive dismissals of the congregation, with the view of abolish ing the service—their being asked by the clerk what they came there f,r—why they did not say their prayers at home, &c. ? Now I think, Sir, that in Churches where Sunday duty only is per formed, the present emoluments ought to be reduced six -sevenths, where Litany-day duty four-sevenths; thus stimulating the Clergy of " The Church of Mammon" to the fulfilment of the conditions on which they hold their present emoluments, VIZ., TWO DAILY SERVICES. It is further to be hoped that, in common gratitude to their temporal head, means will be adopted to compel the annual use of the form of payer for the Queen's Accession, at least in such large communities of her Majesty's subjects.— I am, dear Sir, your obedient servant, cD., cp. THE PITT CLUB. The Anniversary Festival of this Club, which was instituted in honor of Mr. Pitt, and fur the purpose of perpetuating the political principles of that statesman, took place on Saturday evening, at Merchant Tailor's Hall, Treadne dle.street. The attendance of the members was not so numerous as we recollect to have seen on former occasions, nor was the Hall graced by the presence oLeith et1.4„, 1 .1 . 441;_cic s Koko g ox [..13.p135rt Peel. Amongst oth,rs, llarewood, the Earl of Eldon, the Earl of Lontlale, Lord Kenyon, Sir Juba Croft, Colonel Sitithorp, Mr. Burge, Mr. May mad, &c., &c. .The Martinis of S lisintry was in the Chair. The dinner was of course of the most lump ions kind, and the wines . abundant aid exe..llent ; and these unfailing p:onmters of harmony and convitiality, nisi,d by the admirable singing of the professionals en gaged Cro the ouasion, made au evening that would otherwise have been dull and uninteresting, so far as speechification was concerned, pa , s clf agreeably enough. Not Nobis Domi,le was sung with pleasing effect as soon as the cloth had been removed, and after the toasts of " The Queen," " Queen Dowager, and the rest of the Royal Family," and " The Army and Navy," had been respectively disposed of with the customary honours, The Nobly siesta n rose to ou pose" The memory of the Right lion. ‘Villiam Pitt," and in &Mg so pronounced a high eulogium on the s,den. did talents, public conduct, and political principles of that eminent statesman . . The Noble Marquis said that the political principles of Mr Pm must be the theme of admiration so long as the British Constitution existed, and that it was only by a firm adhesion to these principles that the ,af.ty of that Cunstitution could be preserved from the destruction with which it was now unhappily on all sides threatened. The toast was re c, iced and drunk, as usual, in solemn silence. " Church and State," "The House a Lords," " The Conservative Members of the House of Commons," " The Duke of Wellington," " Sir Robert Peel," :did several other toasts comomnly given at the fes tivals of this Club, having severally been duly honoured, the Chairman vacated the and the company separated. Nothing of political importance was uttered throughout the procohl ant: therefore we do not think it necessary to give a detailed report of what I.assed. DE BEGNIS' AND 310RI'S CONCERT. On Saturday a Morning Coccert, given by the above-named Pro f: ssors in conjunction, attracted a large and fashionable audience to the rlanover-square Ito nrif. So large a mass of music was performed, the concert being divided in three parts, and lasting from half past one till halt past five, that we feel great difficulty in selecting what We con sidered entitled to notice. In the first part, two movements of " Beethoven's Symphony in D" wore very finely played by an excellent orchestra. Miss Woodyatt sang Cherub:ni s "Age Maria" with ,x -qtrilite taste, and was beautifully accompanied on the ea:Jr-met by Mr . IVill:ams, the leader of the Queen', private band. Ma,lanie Cita& Oamoreau and Signor de Begnis gave Fioravantis' buffo duet, "lo di tutti." Signor Iranoff sang, in his accustomed exquisitely expressive style," 0 cara immagine; and Cinti Damorean a scene from Aube r ' s " Acteon,' with that beautiful playfulness which is her distinguis hin g feature. Mr. N ,Muti played Mayseder's c..ltbrated Fantasia on t h e violin, with great neatness and beauty of. tone, and was enthusiasti cally applanthol. The part concluded with Beethoven's " Sey t nor," playet (as at Elagrcve's) by forty instruments. " e are still of the same opinion that it is not the proper state to hear this composition in. We heard many persons . amongst the auditory complain of the harsh and screaming effect of such a bstly of violins playing concerto passages on the top of the instru mtnt in unison. In the second part Mrs. Bishop, tin. A. Shaw, and Mc. Henry Phillips, and Mademoiselle Carenoli sung, and Dot"' r played a grand fantasia on the pianoforte; and between the second and third par s Madame Dulcken and the same extraordinary performer a Meet on two pianofortes, both of which were very great treats. In the third part a concertame duct was played by Messrs. Mori and Lindley ; Cinti D moreau arri Mrs. Bishop sang Mozart's fine duct " Sull'arias" aid the whole concluded with the buffo seen:[ acrd aria of Sacchini, " I •;ol.ni tutti," by De Begnis. The concert was a good one in regard to y, but much too long, and a good deal of the music was played in a hurried, sloverly, and "get through it" style. • This was was parti cularly observable in Mori and Limfley's duet, which commenced the third part. CORONATION.—The state coach of his Excel lency the Prince von Pritbus will be shown to all persons applying, who Present their card, on this clay and to-morrow, from ten to five o'clock. The builders are induced to announce this in consequence of having brat o bliged to refuse the numerous applications to see it whilst in an unfinished state. 43, Crawford-street, Bryanston.squaro, of Madame Last evening was the n E ' l a lg rk la e n t d -' , ll ; e r a e t :i e ous to their d eparture f or The combination of the attra ctive names of Mac.

The ward watchman, it appears, first discovered the fire, and he in stantly ;farmed the inmates, who fortunately effected their escape, but with no other ccyering than their night habiliments, to the house of a neighbour. In a few minutes after the alarm two engines from the : I,tfries_square station, one from Watling.street, Princes-square, Far ringd,;nstreet, West of England, and various others (in all 14) reached the spot, when they were most excellently supplied with water, but not withstanding this early cii:ll formidable assistance the whole house and its valuable contents were entirely constlined. A man named Cornelius, who hal charge of end : ranght the sociaty's fire escape, narrowly escaped by the breaking off of the top of the ladder of the machine, by which he was precipitated from thp third floor of the house on to the lead project in over the shop in front. He is but slightly hurt. Every praise is due to the firemen and ward officers for their exertions, otherwise the de struction of property vic i ii .td have been more extensive.

The following general order was issued on Saturday from the Horse Guards : " The troops specified will assist at the ceremony of her Majesty's Coronation, on Thursday the 28th instant, and will, on that occasion. be commanded by Major-General Sir Charles Dalbiac, K. C. H. " The Cavalry will be commanded by Colonel Greenwood, of the 2d Life Guards; the nine-pounder batteries by Lieu tenant-Colonel Cleveland, of the Royal Artillery ; and the In fantry by Colonel D'Oyly, of the Grenadier Guards. " The Cavalry will be distributed as follows, viz.:— " The Household Brigade along the whole line of procession; " The 4th Dragoon Guards in Old and New Palace-yard, at the west end of Bridge-street ; in Margaret-street, and at the east end of Great George-street, Westminster, at which latter point the regimental band will be placed ; The 6th Dragon Guards in Whitehall-place, the Strand, and Trafalgar-square; the regimental band near the Statue at Charing-cross. " The 10th Royal Hussars in Trafalgar-square, Pall-mall East, and Waterloo-place; the regimental band to the north of the Duke of York's Column " The 12th Royal Lancers at the south end of John-street, Pall-mall, at St. James's Palace, the top of St. James's-street, and Hyde Park-corner; the regimental band at St. James's Palace. " The Royal Artillery will take post in St. James's Park. " The Foot Guards, the Infantry of the Line, and the Royal Marines, will be extended along the route of the pro cession) beginning a t the Western entrance of Westminster Abbey) as far as their numbers will admit; and the Honour able Artillery Company will take post in St. Margaret's Church-yard, with its left upon the church, and its right extending towards Bridge-street. " The band of the Royal Artillery will be stationed in front of the Ordnance-office in Pall-mall, and that of the Royal Marines in front of the Admiralty. " The bands, drums, and bugles of the Infantry will be sta tioned with their respective battalions. Each band of eavalry and infantry will play God save the Queen' as her Majesty passes, and will continue to play until her Majesty have passed the regiment, or battalion, to which it belongs. " In order to give additional solemnity to the procession, no tune but that of God save the Queen,' will be played Whilst her Majesty is passing the troops. " The troops will salute in succession as her Majesty passes, each battalion of Infantry continuing with presented arms' until her Majesty sholl have passed its front, when the men will shoulder arms, and the music and drums cease. ,‘ The Household Cavalry will furnish three squadrons to move in the procession, as guards of honour, and will also furnish 'the usual guards of honour on state occasions for such members of the royal family as are to move in the pro. cession. " Each squadron will have a standard, and be commanded by a captain. The three squadrons will be commanded by the senior field officer of the Household Brigade, not in com mand of a regiment. The standards of the Household Cavalry, except those attached to the guards of honour, will be stationed with the respective regimental bands, each regiment furnishing a sub altern's guard for the protection of its own standards. " The Household Cavalry will station a subaltern's detach ment of twenty men in the open space pear the Insolvent Debtors' Court, opposite the western entrance of Westminster Abbey ; and the Major-General commanding will post detach ments, either of the Household Brigade, or of the Cavalry of the Line, at such points in the line of the procession as shall be most convenient for affording ready assistance to the police, if necessary, as well as to furnish constant patroles along the line of procession during the ceremony. Two mounted sen tries of the Household Brigade will be posted, at certain in tervals along that line. _ _ " The I2th Royal Lancers will furnish the cavalry guard at the Horse Guards on Wednesday morning the 27th instant, and be relieved by the Household Cavalry on the following day after the ceremony.

" It being impossible for the Earl Marshal to answer indi vidually the numerous applications for tickets of admission to be present at the rehearsal of the music in Westminster Ab bu, on Tuesday the 260), as also for tickets of admission to her Majesty's Coronation, notice is hereby given, that the whole of the tickets are disposed of. " Earl Marsha.'s Office, June 23, 1838." " 32, Ludgate-hill, June 25, 1838. " Messrs. lituideP, Bridge; and Co. have to express much regret at any Or their friends having been disappointed of admission to their rooms during the last few days, in consequence of the unforeseen diffi culties of access oc,asioned by the crowd, they have therefore the pleasure to inform their friends and the public, that after the coronation of her Majesty, the crown and regalia will, as usual, be exhibited at the J etvel_ottice in the Tower, on application to Mr. Swift, keeper of the J ewel.office; and Messrs. Humid), Bridge, and Co. beg to ask as a fasour, that all who have njt seen the regalia at their house will apply to Mr. Swift, at the Tower. THE LINE OF PROCESSION. As the day for the coronation of our youthful and beloved Queen a pproaches, the preparations to give it eclat arc actively on the increase. liench,s are fitted up at the grand entrance to the Palace, at the top of Constitution.hill, both facing the triumphal arch and looking down towards Buckingham Palace, and along the low wall at the east side of the residence of the ranger of the Green-park a platform has been erected in a substantial manner, so that persons who may view the Procession from it will have the wall breast-high for their protection. No demonstration of any description appeared yesterday in the fronts of the houses of the nobility and genlxy between Apsley-house and B erkeley -street, but several galleries were in progress at Hatchett's lintel and the Gloucester Coffne-house, situated im mediately beyond them towards the east. Barriers of a most formidable description have been erected at the centre of Pico ar Sr. James's.street, and also at every entrance north of the line of the procession from Albemarle street to Hamilton.place, including Dnver-street, Clarges-street, HaLmoon-street, Whitehorse.street, Down_ street, and Park-lane. There is also one running across from the triumphal arch to St George's Hospital, and a further one at the Hyde park entrance to Grosvenor-place. All th e leading avenues are left quite open, both from the west and the south, as they are to be the chief modes of entrance to the ground pointed out fur the formation of the procession. Besides the preparations alre,dy noticed as having taken place In Hyde park, the pyrotechnic gallery has been erected upon an extensive scale, and the painters are busily engaged in giving it its livery of green. It would be impossible to describe the effect produced in the " drives." Yesterday, at hall-p.^st five o'clock, so many splendid equipages we never remember to have seen before, and we have a distinct recollection of the presence of the Foreign Monarchs amongst us after the first defeat of Napoleon by the allies. HYDE PARK FAIR. A very inadequate idea is entertained of the extent to which this portion of the coronation amusements is to be carried, or of the mea sures adopted to ensure order and decorum. With a view to the latter, the whole afl:tir has been put under the management. of Mr. F. M. Mal. superinten , :ent of the It division of police, now stationed at poptford and Greenwich, whose experience in these matters, and in those localities especially, renders him perhaps the most efficient per. SOU that could have been selected; and who has the very able assist ance of Messrs. Johnson and Nelson Lee, who petitioned the Govern ment to sanction the fair. Our readers will form some notion of the magnitude of these prepa rations when they learn that the area allotted will comprise about one third of Hyde park, as near as may be in the centre, extending from nea r the margin of th e S erpentine river to within a short distance of Grosvenor -gate. This immense space will be occupied by every species of urban and rural amusement, including a splendid fancy fair, surrounded by attractions of a more hilarious and active nature. The external form of this gigantic encampment of popular pleasure will ne cessarily be governed to a great extent by the nature of the ground, and present occasional irregularities of figures; but in the interior of the fair, here the level green sward affords the utmost facility for such an arra ngement, an almost mathematical regularity will be observed. To this interior there will be eight entrances, the main one fifty feet wide, and the others thirty feet each. On entering the visitor will find him se, f in an extensive site of an oblong form, being about 1,600 by 1,400 feet ; each side of which will be occupied by theatres, taverns, &c., and ae en dl es s variety of exhibitions ; and the centre appropriated to lines of stalls for the sale of fancy goods, sweetmeats, and toys. Among the former Johnson arid Lee's (late Richardson's) theatre will be seen, con spicuously placed at the jun , :tion of the Grand and Victoria Parades, and occupying twice as much ground as the Strand Theatre; an im nioue booth for refreshments and dancing, put up by Williams, of the Old flailey ; and others of similar dimensions by Algar, Stevens, and various competitors besides in the arts of supply and stimulation. That the demand for accommodation has not been overrated is evident from the t a d , 0,4 on 4,11 1 4,11 4711 , ehing i when sites had been epgage4 for fly 9 hundre4 booths and stalls, but a small portion of the allotment—not a tun par t—remains disengaged ; and to the fairness of the arrangement we are fu tpltify: n o preference was given to any, but 1 ripe lowance made fur the relative respectability of the applicants. 't First come first serveir hag been the governing p r inciple. ;-, , ,,ctitifping the interior, or, more distingiiisably t the f l F4I,NY Fair'? N,Ft of the ground, we ohntteft to state that the lust 4e;p'.e room is afforded to the visitors and spectators; the narrowest space being thirty feqt wige) the Victoria ?araile, intersecting the fancy fair, fifty feet wide; and the grand parade, into which the entrances lead, fr-- eighty to a hundred and thirty feet wide. With such roomy avenues, the employment of a. large body of police, and the vigilant su:serinten. dente of the gentleman who, in virtue of the office conferred on him, is responsible for the whole proceedings, we doubt not that a decent obser vance of good behaviour will render the Hyde_park fair as ronarkable for its propriety as its extraordinary magnitude will distinguish it from every other public rejoicing of a similar nature. A more delightful spot for such enjoyments it would be impossible to select, nor one of easier access ; and it would be a task cf no little diffi. culty to compute how many thousands wit visit it should the present fa vourable weather continue. We understand that one hundred and fifty men and women will be appointed to attend upon the Peers and Peeresses in Westrninstcr. abbey at the coronation, and yesterday the following circular was for warded to the various applicants from the Earl Marshall's office : " EARL MARSHAL'S, " Great George street, Westminster. " You are to attend with this letter at the north door of Westminster abbey on Monday morning, the 25th instant, at ten o'clock; you will inquire for Messrs. Phipps and Cox, who will appoint you to your station at the Coronation on the 28th instant, when you are to wear white trousers and waistcoat. No black wilt be allowed to be worn. "J. HAWKER, Richmond Herald." FESTIVITIES IN THE COUNTRY. Lt ens.—We believe we may state that the holiday, so far as the shopkeepers arc concerned, will be general. With respect to the sus pension of mill operations we are not able to speak with so much cer tainty. We have heard of the names of some firms who are deter mined to give their workpeople an opportunity of manifesting their loyalty to the Queen, and that in a substantial manner, namely, not only by giving them a holiday, but by paying their wages, and supplying them with a good dinner. We have pleasure in recording the names of these parties. Whether the example will prevail to a greater extent than appears here, we cinnot say, but from what we hear, we think the probability is much in favour of a pretty general closing—at least, on the part of those millowners who are attached to liberal politics. Messrs. James Brown and Co. give their workmen a holiday, and pro_ vide thern with a dinner. Mr. Holdforth gives a holiday, a dinner, tea drinking, and ball, and pays the wages of the workpeople for the day. Messrs. Hinds and Denham give a holiday, and regale about 800 work men with a dinner. We understand that a very handsome procession is to be formed from this establishment. Mr. James Green gives a ho liday and a dinner to the whole of his workpeople, at different places in the town. Messrs. Maclea and March give a holiday and a dinner to their workpeople. The. manufactories of Messrs. Marshall and Co., Messrs. Benyon and Co., Messrs. Titley, Tatham, and Co., and the foun dry of Messrs. Fenton, Murray, and Co., will liktwise be closed- We are not aware whether any of the last-mentioned firms intend treating their workmen, but their liberality is well known, and we have no doubt will be judiciously exercised. In addition to the above, Messrs. Tottie and Gaunt, of this place, will give the colliers employed in their coal-pits at Churwell a holiday and a dinner. W. W. Brown, Esq., will treat 500 children at Chapel Alterton with tea and buns A number of Sunday scholars connected with the Wesl,yan Methodist body, we believe about 1,300, will be regaled in a similar manner and in deed we understand that this kind of rejoicing will extend throughout the Methodist body. The friends in the Independent interest are about to hold meetings with reference to the scholars, which will probably re stilt in a determination to snake a similar provision. Three hundred of the poor in the 11ilLlu ll ward are to have dinners at the Griffin, the Black Lion, the Black Horse, the White Cross, and the Horse and Trumpet, where they will have the old English fare of roast beef and plum pudding; and similar entertainments, provided by the Liberal party, wilt take place in rooms and public-houses in various parts of the town. The friends of temperance must not be forgotten. They will assemble at tea at the Music-hall, at which Mr. John Hocking, a cele brated advocate of the cause, is expected to attend. At Hunslet and othrr out townships the scholars belonging to the Methodist and dis senting bodies will be regaled in the same manner as those at Leeds. It was last night agreed that all the schools belonging to the Wesleyan Methodists in the west circuit should join in the procession to Hunslet moor, and afterwards be entertained at their respective schoolrooms. The public procession will be formed in the following order : " That the Mayor, with such members of the Corporation and other inhabitants as may choose to accompany him, meet at the Court-house at half-past nine o'clock, and walk in procession from thence to attend Divine service, at ten o'clock, at St. John's Church, and atter that ser. vice proceed on horseback to Hunslet.moor. That the children bclong. ing to the different schools in the town assemble under their respective teachers and proceed to Hunslet-moor, so as to arrive there at half past twelve o'clock ; when her Majesty's Royal Lancers, and the Leeds squadron of Yorkshire Hussars, will go through their military exercises, lord fire in honour of the occasion. After which the Mal or, Corpora tion, and other inhabitants, will return in procession with the children up Briggate, Upperhead-row, and down Park-row, to the Mixed Cloth. hall, and there join in singing " God save the Queen." The children then to walk to their respective schools, and there partake of such refresh. merits as may be provided for them." Such is the manner in which the Coronation will be observed in Leeds, at least so far as we have been able to learn, for doubtless there will be other modes of celebrating the event, with which we are not acquainted. It will easily be perceived from a perusal of the above particulars, that our account of the rejoicings to take place is confined to the Liberal party, and for the very sufficient reason that what the Tories are going to do nobody knows.—Leeds Mercury. . _ Coronation festivities will take place in almost every town in York shire. We have received interesting accounts from many towns, in all of which substantial dinners are to be provided for the poor; public processions are to be organized ; holidays given to workpeople; and balls are to close the entertainments of the day. Such are some of the rejoicings fixed at York, Halifax, Pontefract, Keighley, Barnsley, Old. ham, Delph, Skipton, Karesborough, Doncaster, Malton, Darlington, and many other places.—Leeds Mercury. SouTiiAsirroN.—The energies of the loyal folks of Southampton have at lengh broken forth ; and, instead of allowing the auspicious day of the Coronation of our beloved Sovereign to pass over in comparative contempt, they have resolved to celebrate it in a manner becoming the occasion. For this purpose his Worship the Mayor convened a public meeting, which was held at the Guildhall on Wednesday last, and was very numerously and respectably attended. The Mayor having been voted to the chair, opened the business, by briefly alluding to the ob ject which called them together, and expressed a hope that there was sufficient loyalty in the breast of the inhabitants to in duce them to come forward with their subscriptions to pro mote such amusements as may he agreed upon. It is pro posed to usher in the eventful day by the ringing of bells ; at eight o'clock to fire six rockets and a royal salute of twenty-one guns. Various amusements during the morning to Se provided by the rnm mime; at twelve o'clock to tire six rockets and twenty-one guns ; after which, the children belonging to the public schools to be regaled in their respective school-rooms; at two o'clock, horse, pony, and foot racing to commence on the Common ; at sunset, six rockets to be fired, and a salute of twenty-one guns ; and the day's celebration to finish with an exhibition of lire-works. In the evening the Committee met at the Audit-house, by pi mission of his Worship, divided the town into dis. tricts, anti several of the Membors were selected to canvass fur sub scriptions; and there is no doubt, from the willing mainwr in which the subscriptions have been given, and the success which has already attended their exertions that the Committee will, at the close of the wcek, have to report a munificent sum. Independently of the above bill of fare, many private dinner parties will be given, and the Mayor, Corporation, and Burgesses will dine together ; for which Mr. Fisk is engaged to provide ; and dinners will also be given at the Crown, Bugle, and many of the other inns; Mr. Webb will also give a public ball in the evening at the Long.rooms, for which a first-rate band is engaged. Should the w:ather prove fine the attractive bill of fare above set forth, no doubt, will draw an immense concourse of people to the town.— Hampshire Telegraph. LlVERPOOL.—Preparations on a splendid scale are in progress in order to render the regatta ou the occasion of the Coronation as attractive and worthy of support as the event which it is intended it shall commemo rate is important and interesting. By the kindness of Mr. Barton a large piece of land immediately fronting the river, and commanding a full view of the course which the contending boats will steer, has been placed at the disposal of the Regatta Committee. To this space ladies and gentlemen, subscribing to the Regatta Fund, who honour the scene with their presence, will be admitted by tickets. Spacious marquees will be erected to serve as refreshment rooms, the arrangements of which will be placed under the experienced superintendence of Mrs. Dobson, of the " Royal Rock," and a military band is engaged to lend its enli vening influence to the scene.—Liverpool Chronicle. NORWICII.—The Mayor gives a dinner at the Assembly-Rooms, where he has invited the town council, the church dignitaries, and other gentlemen to the number of upwards of three hundred. So equally divided have la::en his invitations, that we have reason to know that those issued to his political opponents equal those to has political friends. About the hour when the Town Council will be assembled to hear divine service, races will begin on Monsehold-heath; and a race dinner is, we understand to be held at the Norfolk Hotel. The stewards of the races have determined to crown that new introduction by a ball at the Assembly-rooms on Friday evening —the prose Ads to be appropriated to the racing fund. We presume by this annunciation that it is intended to establish this amusement permanently at fixed intervals. The parishioners of both parties of St. Angus. tine, where the Mayor resides, have raised the largest sub. scription (nearly 501.) ever collected there to aid in the object. Between 700 and 800 will dine in St. Andrew's Hall, the Mayor paying the residue of the charges incurred. Th'e in• habitants of St. Peter's Mancroft have set on foot a aubcrip_ Lion fur fireworks; and if the amount will enable thm ; it is their inten tion to extend the festivities by other public diversiOns on the Castle-hill open to the citizens at large, besides which they give to the poor a dinner in the Corn Exchange. This, after the preparation made by the mayor, exhibits the most public spirit and the best disposition towards those who may be excluded from any means of celebration of any parish or body in the city. The public gardens open gratuitously,—A'a•urich Mercury. WOODBILIDGe.—The subscriptions already received here for the Coro_ nation Festival will enable the committee to dine about 1,200, who, we understand, are expected to assemble on the Market-hill at one o'clock, and to form a procession, attended by the committee, presidents, and waiters of the respective tattles, bearing appropriate flags, &c., proceeding from that place through the principal streets to dinner on the Abbey. lawn, at three o'clock, after which the committee, presidents, and their friends, will partake of a cold collation tinder cover on the ground, which will be supplied by Mr. Salmon, of the Bull Inn. The purse collected for the rural sports is sufficient to warrant plenty of fun till duSk,%vh(ll the company will be requested to adjourn to an adjoining meadow. to conclude the day's amusement with a display cot' fireworks. HurrFoan LOVALTY.—We regret to find that Hertford is about to form a very discreditable exception to the general rule as to the mode in which the Coronation Is to be celebrated. In almost every other town of the empire, no matter how bitter the politloal struggles that have taken place, politics have been lost sight of on this occasion, and the day selected as one on which it was incumbent upon the people of E ng . land to prove that however much they may be divided upon other sub. jeets, there can be no divisions in their feelings towards the youthful Princess who now fills the throne. Surely, for one day, she might have hoped to rule over a united land. But no l In Hertford a mean, de testable spirit of political rivalry has been allowed to mar this prospect, and the Tories have determined to seek in a national jubilee, a party ad vantage, which they will not obtain, We regret to find that Mr. Carter hns been compelled, as Sir Robert Peel too frequently is in the House of Commons, to give his sanction to a proceeding of which we feel sure that in his heart Ire disapproves. It is most gratifying to us to reflect that the hand of good fellowship has been held out by the Li. berals, and that let what will happen we are not to hlaine.—llerts Re, tormer.

Two of the swell mob who were apprehended by a Bow-street-officer, and committed for attempting to OA pockets at Ascot races, escaped f rom custody on their .jc.urney to Beading, about ten miles on the road.
